The worst part is that there are people reading far too much into this.

It feels exactly like it was done in the same humour as the IE team sending Mozilla a birthday cake.

I agree. It's just a video where a company pushes a distorted vision of the past relationship between said company and the community it's bent on destroying because it's perceived as a threat to its business.

Fall for a distorted retelling of a video they don't have time to watch? Yep.

I didn't intend my comment to be a complete retelling; I was just pointing out some odd things that stood out to me, and asking if anyone else here knew what they might represent.
